Question everything!

Don't worry, the internet is so full of misinformation that it becomes impossible to believe everything I read. Everything contradicts everything else, so I have to settle for believing only 50% of what I read. :3 And yeah, text books can be wrong. Remember, they're written by humans and humans make mistakes. With history it's even worse, since history isn't facts. History is the interpretation and telling of facts, so there's almost always a bias in textbooks. No country likes making themselves look bad in history books, so locally-printed books will try to tell past events in a way that makes the country look good.

i agree with you. in my children's university, the principle is to question everything and not believe anything immediately. it makes sense because this will give us better options, choices and decisions.

So do I, friend. It is not good to accept anything we read. We should be critical forever. It is the way, esp. student, needs to do. We don't want to be waved in many info we get. We have to argue over it sometimes. Whether it is correct or not, we need to conduct crosscheck. Yes, ask many people is good too.
